The Office of Government Commerce (OGC) was an independent office of HM Treasury, established in 2000 to help Government deliver best value from its spending. The OGC worked with central Government departments and other public sector organisations to ensure the achievement of six key goals: Delivery of value for money from third party spend; Delivery of projects to time, quality and cost, realising benefits; Getting the best from the Government's £30bn estate; Improving the sustainability of the Government estate and operations, including reducing carbon emissions by 12.5% by 2010-11, through stronger performance management and guidance; Helping achieve delivery of further Government policy goals, including innovation, equality, and support for small and medium enterprises (SMEs); And driving forward the improvement of central Government capability in procurement, project and programme management, and estates management through the development of people skills, processes and tools. In June 2010 OGC transferred to the Cabinet Office to form part of the new Efficiency and Reform Group (ERG) and was wound up in 2011.
